Zoning

A-1

Agricultural District

This district covers the largest portion of the County which is presently occupied by farms, forests, conservation areas and other types of rural uses. It is designed to protect these existing conditions and to encourage only that future development which promotes the preservation of the rural qualities of the County. In addition, selected business and industrial uses may be permitted in the district but only when the governing body finds that such development not only enables the rural characteristics of the County to be maintained but is in harmony with the economic development objectives of the County. It is also an intent of this district to provide for low-density rural housing which is arranged: to minimize impact upon agricultural activities; to maximize open space which may be used for agriculture and forestry; and to be compatible with the rural qualities of the County.
Permitted uses

Include but are not limited to:

  • Agriculture
  • Day care facility
  • Housing-Group
